Thanks for the interesting info JP. I was wondering. Just got my beta
pump back today actually - 5 minutes ago. They replaced it with a new
pump. Didn't tell me why. That pump only had two months useage on it (by
the previous owner). Never saw a new pump before! It's shiny!
Hope you had a great trip, JP. Glad to see you on the list! All the best
to ya!
